Her comments June 27 at the Defense One Tech Summit were an extension of that speech.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis is a world where threats are to and through information,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/c4isrnet\/c2-comms\/2019\/06\/10\/why-the-intel-community-is-at-an-inflection-point-with-data\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/DCA3583.JPG.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Why the intel community is at an inflection point with data<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">The Intelligence Community is entering a third inflection point, and the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency is leading the way in adapting to it, says Principal Deputy Director of National Intelligence Sue Gordon.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Gordon\u2019s framing, the current environment is defined by three factors: ubiquitous technology, almost perfect digital connectedness and data abundance. The national security community will have to change in order to be effective in that environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSo what are we going to do with different threats, different environment, different consumer needs?\u201d asked Gordon. \u201cIt is going to require us to integrate, innovate and partner differently.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One major shift is that adversaries are targeting private sector data, not government information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNinety percent of this nation\u2019s threat surface is outside of the government. It\u2019s in the private sector or in the public,\u201d Gordon said. \u201cThey have to be provided with data that will help them make decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Intelligence Community will have to adapt it\u2019s tradecraft in order to better communicate the threats facing the public \u2014 a change that the agencies aren\u2019t particularly accustomed to, noted Gordon. That sentiment is similar <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/information-warfare\/2019\/06\/18\/should-the-us-declassify-intel-to-counter-growing-chinese-threats\/\" target=\"_blank\">recent concerns raised by Sen. Mark Warner, <\/a>D-Va., who claimed that he needed more unclassified data to adequately communicate the threats China poses to American businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn our society, much of this data is free and publicly available, and our adversaries are going to absorb it like a sponge,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The national security community will also need to invest more heavily in fundamental research she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhile there is tremendous work going on in the private sector that we have benefited from, and we have to recognize that the government isn\u2019t going to be a leader \u2015 it\u2019s going to have to be a fast follower in these technologies \u2014 there are some areas that will not be commercially pursued that they will need, so we\u2019re going to have to innovate in security,\u201d said Gordon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lastly, Gordon pointed to the challenge of ensuring that collected data can be integrated with other data sets across multiple systems. Data integration is essential to winning this battle, she said,, and thinking about data with the end user in mind is a big part of that. Data that is collected but can\u2019t be used isn\u2019t particularly helpful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI think this is such a data rich world that the person who can command that data first is the one that is gonna have a real advantage,\u201d Gordon said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The current information environment is different than anything
